Oh, I see, once you've got one girlfriend, it's easy to get more? Well, according to the Ladder Theory, it seems that the most important factor for success is to have lots of money (you get placed higher up on her ladder). Therefore, it makes sense to concentrate one's efforts on becoming super rich, and then it should be easier to attract women.

So now the question is, how does one become super rich??

A few ways:
1. Win the lottery.
2. Inheritance.
3. Become a professional athlete.
4. Become a rock star.
5. Sell a kidney.
6. Win a frivolous lawsuit.
7. Rob a bank.
8. Lie.

Too bad that 1-7 are either highly unlikely or highly illegal, and #8 could be lethal when she finds out....

The ladder theory seems a bit cynical and non-helpful.

I sometimes don't know what to talk about...ie...mind goes blank, when I'm with a girl. The weather seems to be a Last ditch effort of things to talk about. What do you suggest?

To All; believe me just being rich isn't the answer. The super rich don't get all the want. I know several guys with very little money that have to beat women of with a stick. You need, STYLE.

kirbyef, you just need to do more meeting, more talking and simply more interaction with women. The more you practice, the better you become. Just like anything. Talk about movies. If nothing else comes to mind. Most women at least like movie. Common ground. If you are REALLY smart, find another theory to adopt!

The reason Job Offers and Women come in multibles is you are ready.
At that point in time if you have the desired traits for 1, you will have the desired traits for many. As far as taking advantage of many women, Find a bi sexual polyamorous women.
In terms of wealth, forget it. Any woman who makes that a priorty will ruin your life.
Hm, make that Any Person.
In terms of looking for a specific person try the Online personals.
You can get great Target Marketing there.
It is how I found mine.

The biggest consideration on the ladder is POWER, not money. In our commercial society money=power.
POWER can take many forms: strength, stamina, status, influence, family, land, money, and even politics.

As a young girl grows into an adult, the PERCEPTION of which form of power is important can change.

Raising succesfull children is not cheap (time, labor, money). Unsuccessfull and unhealthy children are even more costly. So it makes sense to be attracted to healthy bucks and later prefer providers.

Just my Cynical 2 cents on women.

An equally cynical view of males.

Males just have one ladder....so whats the strategy....
Their genes are best spread by planting them in many hosts. They only contribute 1/2 the DNA but not the microchandria... (something or other).

Child raising limits a mans ability to spread his genes. He must find women who can raise a child alone or one who can get another man to help. So a womans attractiveness to males becomes important. Remember that health and youth are important parts of attractiveness.

The healthier the woman the more likely the child will be sucessfull (healthy). The healthy and younger woman should be able to provide more child raising labor. The healthy, younger, and attractive woman is more likely to find a provider male to help with the childs success.
